Sociology was my absolute favorite subject, and the one that I only decided to pick about 3 months before the exams. While it is quite content heavy, if you find it interesting you will enjoy studying it to the point it doesn't feel like work. 

​

Due to the fact I only had 3 months to learn and then revise the content, I had to work very smart and fast. The book was far too long and had too much unneeded info, so while learning the content I relied mainly on the online sites I have listed in sites + sources. Alongside this, I would read the recaps of each section/chapter in the book to ensure I wasn't off track. When revising, I made use of the Cambridge learner guide to ensure I covered the required topics.  I think the biggest thing that helped solidify the knowledge was going through past paper questions, which I answered based on the mark-schemes provided.

 

It is also very important to know how to structure your answers to each questions in the exam to ensure you make the best use of your time. I will explain in the Tips + Advice section how I recommend you answer the questions, as in how many points to make and so on, alongside how I planned my essays during the exam before I started writing to ensure they were well written and comprehensive.
